Chapter 1510
Take Me Again
The Resistance team was headed to the mine on foot. They'd been let off on the backside of the mountain by the Blackhawk.
Cam decided to lead the team. No one put up an argument. They all knew it was the 'Cameron' in her. Bob followed her and Gail followed him. Jim brought up the rear. They moved in a loose formation.
John Henry relayed the information to them about what was once an air shaft. It was in a section of the mine which was closed years ago as unproductive. It was unknown what was there today. The satellite photos were inconclusive. There was no direct drone support for this part of the mission. They didn't want to inadvertently tip their hand.
They all looked at the schematic of the mine from its last survey seven years before it closed. The part they were about to enter was shut down before World War Two. It was probably in disrepair, or there could even be collapsed sections.
"It closed during the Great Depression, which the FDR administration worsened with its failed policies." Bob said. "It was why he needed to get the United States involved in World War Two. It was only the military spending which put everyone back to work."
Gail looked at Bob.
"With your accent, some might question which side you were on back then." Gail said.
Bob tilted his head slightly.
"What's wrong with my accent?" Bob asked. "John likes me to sound like this. He said it makes me sound distinguished."
Cam wanted to keep the team moving.
"Everyone stay sharp. We don't know what Skynet has done inside of this place." Cam said. "We need to make sure there aren't any surveillance devices either."
Jim looked at the things Summer indicated on the diagram.
"At least we have a probable starting point." Jim said.
Cam knew Summer wanted to go 'one on one' with Skynet. It was something CamNet quietly conveyed to her. Summer previously offered to make River's encryption harder….
"Let's keep moving." Cam said.
She was aware John Henry, CamNet, or any of the Terminators, could break River's encryption. Summer was able to do it in a matter of seconds. When John Henry asked her what she'd done, she said she could put it back the way it was. He told her not to. She said she could make it harder, so it wouldn't be so easy the next time.
CamNet needed to send John Henry a warning to stop asking Summer about it. She understood Summer would be able to stop them, if they ever went bad.
Both Sarah and Claire decided to do the piercings.
"I'll do one first on Claire." Jesse said. "You can all watch. It's simple and fast. It's easy."
Sarah was anxious to get it done.
"Let's get started." Sarah said. "I really want to do this."
Jesse laid everything out and disinfected the area twice on both of them as well as the instruments.
"I have a set of tongs to act as a guide." Jesse said.
Claire was more than ready. The 'headlights' were on.
Jesse moved forward with the tongs. She applied the tongs and made sure everything was lined up. She held up the special needle.
Sarah and Vanna watched intently.
Jesse looked at Claire.
"Are you ready to look even more beautiful, love?" Jesse asked.
Claire looked down and then back straight ahead.
"Yes." Claire said. "Go ahead."
Jesse did. She pushed the needle through in one swift motion. It only took a fraction of a second.
Claire let out a small yelp.
Sarah looked a little worried.
"Did it hurt much?" Sarah asked.
Jesse put the first ring in as she removed the needle. She quickly lined up the tongs on the other side.
Claire was surprised and how quickly the pain went away. She was ready to proceed.
"It was a sharp pain at first. It only lasted a second." Claire said. "You can do the next one for me, Sarah."
Jesse handed Sarah the needle. The tongs were already in place.
"You're all set." Jesse said. "You need to do it fast. It will cause less pain if you do."
Sarah looked at the tongs and the needle.
"I'll do it on 'three'." Sarah said.
Vanna and Jesse watched with fascination.
"One, two and three." Sarah said as she did it. "It's finished."
Claire let out less of a yelp. She was better prepared for the sensation.
Jesse moved up and put the ring through. She quickly closed the rings up and secured the captive beads. It was done.
Vanna looked at the handiwork. She was surprised at what wasn't there.
"There's not even a drop of blood." Vanna said. "It looks so Hot."
Claire looked at herself in front of the mirror.
"I can't believe this is for real." Claire said. "LOOK at me!"
Jesse checked for any problems as she disinfected the area again.
"You're good to go, love." Jesse said.
Sarah was more than ready.
"I'm really stoked." Sarah said.
Jesse lined up the tongs on Sarah. She handed Vanna the second needle.
Vanna and Sarah locked eyes.
"I'm ready." Sarah said.
Vanna looked down and made sure everything was lined up.
"Are you ready?" Vanna asked.
Sarah was more than ready.
"Surprise me." Sarah said. "Do it - now."
In an instant, Vanna did. The needle went through.
Sarah grimaced but no yelp escaped her mouth.
Jesse put the larger diameter and heavier gauge ring through. Sarah grimaced again but was silent. She remembered she'd let out a yelp when Cameron pierced her. It was clear Sarah was as tough as her reputation. Then again, she'd been shot and stabbed more than once on multiple occasions. It was still impressive.
"You're a real trooper, love." Jesse said.
Sarah was so excited she was able to deal with the temporary pain with almost no problem. She really, really wanted this. Next to being shot or stabbed, it really was nothing. She was pretty sure a sting from a hornet hurt her worse one time.
Jesse quickly lined up the other side with the tongs. She handed the needle to Claire.
Sarah and Claire locked eyes for a moment.
"I'll do it on 'three'." Claire said.
Sarah wanted it now.
"Just do it." Sarah said. "Give it to me."
Claire acted instantly.
"Three." Claire said and pushed the needle through.
Sarah drew in her breath but was silent.
Jesse was impressed again.
"You're hard corps." Jesse said as she slipped the other ring through. "YOU are tough."
Jesse quickly secured the beads and Sarah looked in the mirror.
"I think I'm going to finish just looking at myself." Sarah said as she touched her rings.
Claire was next to Sarah as they examined themselves and each other. She thought she looked identical to Samantha.
Vanna didn't tell them she'd finished when she'd made the piercing. It was the hottest thing she'd done with a female in a long time. It made her wonder about some of the things Jesse did to some females in their future. She could see the lure. One thing could lead to another.
Jesse was very pleased with how both of them looked. She gave everything one more examination.
"You both look beautiful." Jesse said as she disinfected both of them again.
There was a knock at the door and Holly entered.
"I need one of you for…." Holly started and stopped when she saw what was happening. "You both looked beautiful."
The girls talked for a few minutes and Jesse gave them both some care instructions.
Vanna said she would cover Precious. She picked up her robe and put it on as she left.
Holly started to go with Vanna but Jesse stopped her.
"How about giving it a go, love?" Jesse asked.
Holly looked at Claire and at Sarah. It excited her to see both of them with rings. The fact they were naked only added to the effect. Sarah's were large and distinctive. She pulled her top off.
Jesse, Claire and Sarah all looked at her. It was an impressive sight to see any time.
Holly wanted to keep Allison interested in her since she was back at the Resistance base. There was a lot of competition now.
"I can try it for a day or two and see if Allison likes it." Holly said.
She reached back and unhooked her bra and slipped it off.
Sarah's eyes widened. She knew Holly was big, but she really got a close up view now. Those were two very large perfect breasts to 'die for'. Growing up, it's how she'd hoped to look. She never came close. She desired for a little more. She figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
"Wow! Those are the most beautiful breasts I've ever seen in person." Sarah said. "Can I touch one?"
Jesse and Claire secretly agreed, but they didn't want to upset their Metal lovers and actually say what Sarah said out loud.
Holly smiled. She noted the three girls were still naked. She was unaware Sarah was active with the other girls. She always thought Sarah was off limits. It evidently was no longer the case. She'd like a 'crack' at Sarah one day. She knew Allison did too. She'd heard Allison talk about her desire for years. She wanted Sarah to know she was ready for more.
"You can touch both of them." Holly said.
Sarah did and Holly 'examined' both Claire and Sarah.
Jesse showed Holly the box with the rings.
"Pick your poison, love." Jesse said.
Holly picked out a pair.
"I'll start with these." Holly said.
Holly told them she needed to hurry and get back.
Jesse agreed to let Sarah and Claire make the piercings and she would put the rings in.
Holly barely flinched as everything was done. She did feel it though.
Sarah was a little surprised Holly left her pain receptors on.
"You didn't need to feel anything." Sarah said.
Holly disagreed. She wanted the full experience.
"It was a little more intense than I anticipated." Holly said. "At least I know I'm alive."
She put her top back on but left her bra off.
She thanked the girls and left.
Jesse looked at the doorway.
"Did all that just happen?" Jesse asked.
Sarah and Claire looked at each other's rings and at Jesse.
"Hell yes." Sarah said. "I need to run."
Sarah thanked Jesse and Claire and put her robe back on. She left and hurried back to her room.
Claire and Jesse were alone in Jesse's room now.
"I need a finish now…." Claire said.
Jesse led Claire back to the bed.
"You've come to the right place." Jesse said. "I'll take it easy up there. I won't down here."
Claire was sure this must be one of the best days of her life. She looked down at herself as Jesse pleasured her lower down.
Vanna looked back and expected Holly to follow her. She'd left with only a robe on. She didn't even bother with her clothes. It would give her an excuse to go back later and 'cash in' on the girls.
She went to the nursery and entered.
Riley was in there with Precious.
"I ran out." Riley said somewhat disgustedly.
Vanna looked her over. She thought Riley looked a little less depressed than normal. She actually looked cheerful for once even if she was a little miffed.
"I've got you covered." Vanna said.
Vanna released the robe and it opened.
Riley looked.
"Wow!" Riley said. "You really are ready."
Vanna looked down. She was already primed. It was the result of her recent activity.
"I guess I am." Vanna said. "I think these things keep getting bigger and bigger."
Vanna sat down and took over nursing Precious.
Riley looked around.
"Was Holly going to come back?" Riley asked.
Vanna thought so but maybe Holly decided to share with the girls there. Sarah was there after all. She still couldn't believe what happened. She was with Sarah Connor! It was sweet….
Riley and Vanna shared some small talk.
About five minutes later Holly arrived.
Vanna looked at Holly and noticed right away something was different.
"I can see Allison is in for a surprise." Vanna said.
Riley looked at where Vanna looked. It was something she hadn't noticed before. She always looked whenever Holly was around. She was sure it was a recent addition.
"Hot damn, look at you!" Riley said. "Are they new?"
Holly looked over at the door to Riley's room. She closed it. She thought she should moderate her response somewhat. She decided to leave Sarah's name out of it.
"Jesse and Claire helped me out." Holly said. "I just decided to do it on a whim. I wanted to surprise Allison."
Holly opened her top for Vanna and Riley to see.
Riley almost made it when she saw Holly with her top opened and the new rings on her perfect large breasts. She'd tried real hard for a long time to get closer to Holly before. She never did.
Holly could see Riley was enthralled. So was Vanna.
"Go ahead and touch one." Holly said. "There's one for each of you."
Riley did and she made it after all. She'd literally dreamt about it for years….
Vanna touched the other one.
There was a knock at the connecting door. Holly quickly closed her top and Derek looked in.
Vanna made no effort to cover her top, but she did cover her legs.
Holly let one side of her top open back up. Derek looked at the large breast with the ring. He went back to the other room and closed the door behind him. He hadn't said a word. He'd tried to act like he didn't see anything.
Riley, Vanna and Holly all laughed. They knew he had, but didn't want to talk about it.
Holly opened her top back up for Riley and Vanna to get a good look at everything.
Riley was very depressed for months until the last day or so. With everything that happened in the last twenty four hours, she knew life was good in Paradise. She felt like a new person again. Even if nothing else happened, she was very happy about what did. She planned to pleasure herself and 'relive' each of those very special encounters.
Sarah returned to her room. Kyle was still asleep. She went straight to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. She looked at herself from the front and both sides. She touched the rings and pulled on them a little.
'Ouch.' She thought, but remained silent.
She smiled at herself in the mirror and went and slipped back into bed.
She really looked forward to surprising Kyle.
No sooner than she pulled the sheet up, than Kyle stirred.
Kyle was a little surprised to see Sarah look at him as he looked over.
"I think I dozed off." Kyle said.
Sarah smiled.
"Did you dream about anything?" Sarah asked.
Kyle looked a little embarrassed. He didn't want to say what he'd dreamt about.
Sarah was in a playful mood. She wanted to push things a little.
"Spill it." Sarah said. "Did you dream of a big busted blonde?"
Kyle looked a little defensive.
"I dreamt you received a set of rings and looked like Samantha did." Kyle said. "I think you would look more beautiful than she did."
Sarah felt a rush of excitement.
"Did you dream about me or Samantha?" Sarah asked.
Sarah pulled the sheet tight across her breasts. The large rings were visible.
"It was you. I…." Kyle started and stopped in mid sentence as he looked at the sheet.
The rings clearly stood out.
He reached over and pulled the sheet down.
Sarah noticed Kyle pinch himself.
"Ouch." Kyle said.
Sarah moved his hand over.
"It's not a dream." Sarah said. "Touch one."
Kyle was speechless. He didn't think Sarah would actually go through with it. He was excited instantly.
Sarah looked down at Kyle. She could see he was ready for some action.
"Do you have a license for that thing?" Sarah asked. "It looks bigger than usual."
Kyle was highly stimulated. He tried to move on top of her. She thought maybe she should have rinsed her mouth out when she looked in the mirror in her bathroom. She was a little worried he would know she was with Vanna.
She moved out from under him and moved on top of him. She faced him.
"This way you can see everything." Sarah said.
Kyle was more than ready. Apparently Sarah was too. Things started off fast. Everything was smooth and easy. He took in the view and went along for the ride. He really liked the way the rings bounced up and down. Life was good in Paradise.
Young Jesse talked it over with Camille. They were in the Mitchell. She thought the best thing to do was to head for Palmdale. Hanna and Samantha could take the Mustang back to Van Nuys. Maybe Camille and her could do it too. It would be mostly dark by then. It would at least give her a short flight in the Mustang anyway.
She followed the railroad tracks back. They passed over the Tehachapi Loop again. There was an uphill container train in the process of looping itself. They continued along the line. They soon passed by the four short tunnels on the hillside.
They were near Mojave a short time later. They followed the old Southern Pacific tracks straight across the Antelope Valley towards Palmdale. As they neared Palmdale, they headed for the west side and Cameron's private airstrip.
Young Jesse made two touch and go landings before she set it down. Randy and Brian were there waiting for Young Allison and Anna.
It was decided Samantha and Hanna would take the Mitchell back to Van Nuys.
Camille and Young Jesse got out and Hanna and Samantha strapped in and took off. They returned and cut the grass once. It was an awesome experience to be so close to the big R2600 engines at full power as the B-25 passed by next to them.
Randy looked at Young Jesse.
"Do you want to visit Young Allison's bunker?" Randy asked.
Young Jesse thought about it. She was afraid if she did, something might happen with her and Young Allison. It wasn't something to fool with right now. She didn't want to intrude on Savannah. She could see it would all happen soon enough. She wanted to get back and see Vanna again if she could.
"Maybe some other time we can." Young Jesse said. "I think we should take the Mustang back for now."
Brian checked to see where they were at. It appeared there was more than anticipated.
"You might have a little bit of a wait." Brian said.
Camille didn't want to wait too long. Things were supposed to happen in a certain order.
"This was to be a short flight." Camille said.
Young Jesse didn't want any friction. She knew Camille was worried she would try to hit on Young Allison. She wasn't there to cause problems for anyone.
"We're going back to Van Nuys once they land." Young Jesse said. "We're good."
Camille smiled at her.
Young Allison did a few touch and go landings in the Mustang and then a real landing and takeoff at Madera. She didn't push it.
They too followed the railroad tracks back. There were no trains on the Tehachapi Loop when they passed. There was a container train passing through the four short tunnels right before Cable.
They kept to the north of Mojave and headed out over the desert. They stayed between Edwards Air Force Base and China Lake Naval Weapons Air Station.
Young Allison alternated between five and ten thousand feet the whole time as she did some aerobatics. They went as far as Baker and Interstate 15. She needed to be mindful of the time.
The sun was low in the sky as they headed for Palmdale.
Young Allison set it down on Cameron's private strip. She was surprised to see Camille and Young Jesse there. Brian and Randy were there with them.
Anna shut the Mustang down. Young Allison and her climbed down.
"Fancy meeting you here, love." Young Jesse said.
Anna hadn't expected to find Young Allison and Camille there.
"I'll say." Anna said.
Anna was worried Young Allison might try for a little more.
Young Allison was pleased to see them. She would like for them to see her bunker. She was very proud of it.
"We're headed for home." Young Allison said. "You can come if you want."
Camille and Anna looked at each other.
"We need to get back before it is too late." Camille said. "I don't want anyone to worry."
The girls all shared some small talk about the planes.
Young Allison gave Young Jesse a few pointers.
Young Jesse made a quick inspection of it with Young Allison. Anna and Camille accompanied them.
Camille climbed in the rear seat and Young Jesse took the front seat. They made sure it was clear, started it up and left. Camille made one low pass over the runway and then they were gone.
Young Allison watched them go.
"There's a team about to conduct an operation." Brian said. "It's currently a recon."
Young Allison got behind the wheel of the SUV. The seat was already adjusted for her.
"Fill me in…." Young Allison said as she started the SUV and headed for home.
She soon spotted Mel in a second SUV once they neared the city. It looked like it was back to business as usual.
Cameron allowed Savannah to make a few touch and go landings with the AT-33 at Madera once the others were gone. They were both well on their way to Palmdale. Camille and Anna kept her informed.
Savannah was able to get a good feel of the T-Bird in a very short time.
"This aircraft is very easy to fly." Savannah said.
Cameron thought Savannah picked it up very quickly. She knew Savannah flew by the seat of her pants. It was like a musician who could 'play by ear'.
"It's been around for a long time. Many pilots first learned to fly a jet in this plane." Cameron said. "You're doing excellent."
Savannah knew what Cameron really wanted. She wanted the same thing.
"Where do you want to go?" Savannah asked.
Cameron was ready for whatever Savannah was.
"I want to go where you take me." Cameron said.
Savannah looked back over her shoulder at Cameron.
"How far do you want to go?" Savannah asked.
Cameron looked directly at Savannah.
"All the way…." Cameron said.
John and Allison made love several more times. It was all very slow and sweet.
They lay side by side and stared into each other's eyes. They'd been to this point several times already. It was something neither of them wanted to stop.
Allison wanted more. She wanted to offer John more. If she was going to stay at the Resistance base, maybe she should take things a step further. She decided to float the idea.
"I want to move in. I'm ready to take things further." Allison said.
John stared into her eyes. He swallowed hard. He knew it would be a problem. Claire and Jesse both indicated the same thing. They weren't as direct as Allison. Vanna was a little more reserved. It wasn't just Allison and him. There were others involved as well.
"What about Vanna and Holly?" John asked.
Allison didn't see it as a problem. She was ready for more in her life. She also needed to recognize reality. Wants and desires often conflicted with reality.
"I'm only worried about Cameron." Allison said. "I know I can't do it, even if it's what I want."
Allison shared a slow deep passionate kiss with John.
John listened to Cameron tell him what she wanted for him for years. He didn't see it as a conflict.
"It's what she wants." John said. "I've heard her tell me thousands of times."
Allison frowned. She knew it was about her, even if it wasn't actually her.
"She's really referring to Young Allison." Allison said. "She doesn't see age as any relevant factor. She's told me so many times, even when Young Allison was younger. She's not anymore. She said if everyone knows the future, what difference does it make? It's all going to happen anyway."
John felt a little nervous now. He'd thought about Young Allison for years already. It was usually when he woke up in the morning. Strangely enough, it was usually when Cameron was there next to him. Normally she wasn't. He figured it was from watching the movie too many times. He was pretty sure Cameron was the one who'd turned him on to the movie in the first place. It was a long time ago. It just seemed like something he needed to watch one morning when he woke up. He'd watched it many times since then. Well, he'd watched some of the 'selected scenes' many times anyway.
He was surprised when Allison moved down and started him up. He thought she was going to mount him. As soon as he was ready, Allison moved back up alongside him.
Allison wanted something else.
"Take me again." Allison whispered in his ear.
He moved over on top of her and they kissed as he lined up. He felt her draw in her breath for a few seconds. Her nails dug into his back a little as she pulled him closer and then things got started again.
It was smooth sailing for both of them, real smooth….
Cammy and the girls headed back to the SUV.
Sheila was ready to go back to the girl's place and get things started.
Cammy wanted to turn the girls loose on John. She wanted to 'punish' Cameron for being out with Savannah.
Mary and Laura were a little hungry. They wanted more than the snacks at the club. It wasn't because the snacks available weren't excellent. They just wanted something a little more substantial.
Ally wanted to bring back Mary and Laura for the rest of Metal girls to be with.
Leticia was ready to go wherever Sheila went. She would do whatever, or whoever, Sheila wanted her to do. She liked to make people happy. She really hoped to make 'Tony' happy.
One thing was for sure, the evening was still young.
The Terminator was just another car among many on the freeway right now. He loosely followed the limousine to its next destination. He let the drone track it and stayed approximately a half mile behind the limousine. There was no need to needlessly tip his hand. The drone could target the limousine at any point in time with a missile or with a gravity shot of 'metal hail'. Collateral damage would need to be considered if the drone engaged the limousine.
They drove for approximately three miles before the limousine took an interchange and entered another freeway. At the first exit, the limousine exited the freeway. It did the repeat maneuver of sitting at the signal, for two signals, to see if any other vehicle pulled up behind it. None did. No other car took the exit.
The Terminator fell back a little more when the limousine took the new freeway. He slowed up as it exited the freeway. He figured they would repeat the earlier maneuver and they did.
The limousine turned left and went under the freeway overpass. The drone couldn't view what happened underneath the overpass. Someone could either get in or out of the vehicle and not be spotted. All communications were cut off so they wouldn't have been able to contact anyone. Only someone could get out of the vehicle most likely.
It emerged from the other side of the overpass rather quickly. There was no indication it slowed or stopped. It turned right at the third street and continued down it.
The Terminator took the same route and exit. He didn't spot anyone around the freeway underpass on either side as he went through it. Instead of turning down the same street limousine did, he turned down one street before it. He didn't know how far down the limousine would go.
The Gray watched the first man check up on them. He said he was headed towards the large building. He figured he wanted to look over everything himself. He couldn't blame him.
The first man entered the large building. He looked at the two big rigs parked there. Both of them were currently empty. They'd used a forklift and unloaded both of them a day ago. Not only did they bring four HK Tracks, they also brought a number of crates with sub assemblies and other parts. He wasn't worried about those.
He went over and looked at each of the HK Tracks. All four of them appeared to be shut off. After what he'd heard happened at two other locations, it really made him wonder. The HK Tracks had been parked there as long as the other ones would have been at the other locations. They hadn't had a problem.
There was another thing which concerned him a little more. It was something a team had picked up when they raided another version of Skynet. Two of the technicians had been fooling with it since they'd picked it up a week ago. It was some type of 'spatial amplifier'. It was the only thing they could tell him. They didn't know how it worked. They weren't even sure how to turn it on, or if it could be turned off once it was turned on. Speculation was it was some type of gateway to, or from, another future.
One of their operatives reported back on something similar. When they were able to get a team to the location the device it was housed in, it was destroyed. The buildings around it were heavily damaged as well. Either it malfunctioned, or someone destroyed it. They didn't know.
It worried him none of the runners they'd sent out over the last couple of days had returned yet either. So far all of the indications were everything involved with their operation had been destroyed or was under attack.
The first man walked over to where the two technicians worked on the device at.
The female Fanatic and Jill entered the dry gulch.
"This is deep enough now where we won't be spotted right away." The female Fanatic said.
Jill could see the sides of it were above their heads.
"I think sometimes it will get shallower as it gets wider." Jill said. "I noticed it was like that near the highway."
The female Fanatic thought they were good for now.
"The land was much flatter there." The female Fanatic said. "The side of the hill has contained it more and made it deeper."
They continued along through the dry gulch. It actually began to narrow on them substantially.
The female Fanatic could see it was about to get shallower.
"Let me take a look before we're exposed to much." The female Fanatic said.
Jill could see it was getting darker. The sun was behind the hills where they were at.
"It will be dark soon. It'll make us harder to spot." Jill said. "I hope so anyway."
The female Fanatic looked up at the sky.
"Let me get our bearings." The female Fanatic said.
The female Fanatic poked her head up from inside the dry gulch. She could see they were very near one of the outbuildings. It was around the band of one of the small hills before the main complex. She carefully moved her head from side to side. She didn't want to do anything too swiftly since they were so close to the building. She didn't spot anyone at the building itself. She looked further down the side to see where the road was at. She could see there were two men there.
She looked back in the other direction and spotted two more men further down. She quickly gave Jill a rundown on where they were and what was visible.
Jill wondered what they would do first.
"Are we going to try to breach the closest building?" Jill asked.
The female Fanatic would like to find out what was in it, if it was possible. She didn't want the men to spot her.
"It looks like we'll pass very near the building." The female Fanatic said. "I think the building will block us from the view of the two men on the east side. We just need to worry about the two men on the north side."
Jill knew it would be a little more involved and just the four men.
"There's bound to be others." Jill said.
The female Fanatic was sure of it.
"I hope there's going to be a lot less before we're done." The female Fanatic said.
Jill really hoped to be able to find the two men who'd abused her in the warehouse at the end of a dirt road.
"I really want to find those other two men." Jill said. "I saw all of their faces over and over, unless they turned me over on my front side. They were animals."
The female Fanatic understood how Jill felt. She'd experienced some of it herself. It was never for a few days with a large group like Jill was forced to endure.
The two females continued their trek. The female Fanatic took a peek every now and then. she could see the layout of the complex much better from where they were at. There was one large building along with several additional smaller ones. The large building had a tall smokestack attached to it on the rear. She wasn't exactly sure what it was for.
"It looks too risky to attempt to enter the first building." The female Fanatic said.
Jill wondered if they could get close to the big building from where they were.
"Do you think this will take us past the next two men without being spotted?" Jill asked.
The female Fanatic sure hoped so.
"I think so." The female Fanatic said. "Once we can get past them, I think we should be able to advance.
The female Fanatic continued to lead Jill deeper into the compound. The dry gulch had provided them with good cover. It was much darker now as well.
Lena and Tina left the vehicle behind and crossed over the highway. They moved down the dirt access road for the power lines.
The drone over them kept track of where everyone was at. They knew where the eight men were at on the perimeter. They knew where the female Fanatic and her associate were. They were able to see a few individuals move around inside of the compound. There were three smaller out buildings around what appeared to be the main factory.
There were no other cars on the dirt road. There were no cars on the main highway either. They were sure CamNet was involved with it in some way. Now wasn't the time to worry about it.
Lena and Tina soon reached the location of the car the female Fanatic used. They took a few minutes to go through it. They opened the trunk and found several long guns along with extra magazines. The fired LAW tube was in there as well.
"Why didn't they take the assault rifles with them?" Tina asked. "It would have given them much more firepower."
Lena wondered the same thing herself.
"I think they knew if they needed to use the bigger guns, they weren't going to be able to withstand any type of counterattack." Lena said. "They're going to need to rely on what they have been able to rely on so far, it's stealth. It's the only way they can operate within a superior force and not be terminated quickly."
Tina felt the female Fanatic had been extremely lucky so far. She still wondered if she was genetically enhanced somehow. The other female wouldn't be. She'd been able to keep up with the female Fanatic in everything they'd witnessed where they acted together.
Lena and Tina left the car behind. They didn't take any of the weapons with them. They moved into the dry gulch to pursue the female Fanatic.

Cameron took one more look around the house and went outside. She made sure the door was locked behind her.
She decided to take another look around the property. She passed by all of the outbuildings and made her way back to the barn. It was really a garage. She opened the door and went inside. She'd already looked at the vehicles with Young Allison earlier. She went over and looked at the engines which were on engine stands. She could see both of them were FE blocks. She could see there were bolts in the side above the oil pan. She reached down and touched the side of a block. It signified four bolt main caps to secure the crankshaft for high RPM usage. It was the standard procedure for the FE block. It was an indicator they were 427 engines. It was the engine which would gain fame in the Shelby AC Cobra and the GT40. It was the same power plant in the Galaxie lightweight.
It appeared the Metal girls wanted to make sure she had a couple of spare engines in case she stayed above the red line a little too long on the Galaxie. They also could be for Young Allison and her put in the other vehicles. It would give Young Allison a strong 'hands on' mechanical background going forward.
Cameron started the Falcon. It wasn't very noisy, even with the dual exhaust. She got out of it and went over and opened the garage door. She went back and drove the Falcon out. She got back out and closed the garage door. She would need to see about fabricating some type of automatic garage door opener. It only cost her an additional thirty seconds each time she we need to get out and open it and close it again after she passed through.
She drove alongside of the house and repeated the process with the two gates. She made sure both of them were close behind her before she drove away. She decided to cruise around the area and see what was still open.
Earlier:
Young Allison was aware Cameron entered her room to check on her. She resisted the urge to place her hand on the Hi-Power under her pillow. She waited until Cameron left her room and she could hear her go outside. She got up and checked the door. It was locked. She knew it would be.
She moved over to the window and watched Cameron check the perimeter. She ended up back in her room to see Cameron go into the garage. It wasn't long until Cameron pulled out with the Falcon. She watched her drive by the house and go out the two gates and secure them behind her.
Young Allison went back and lay down. Her hand slipped under the pillow and felt the cold steel of the Browning. She closed her eyes. They open back up in less than a minute. She was still wide awake, even if she was sleepy.
She got up. She made her way to the dining room section of the living room. She tripped the catch on the picture and swung it out of the way. She quickly opened the safe. She closed it and cleared the tumblers. She practiced the combination again. She did it several times until she could open it very swiftly.
She looked at the items inside of the safe. Everything was the same as she'd looked at earlier. She closed the safe and returned the picture to its location. She went back towards her bedroom. She paused for a moment at the bathroom. She didn't need to use it. She continued on into her room.
She went over to the record player and looked at it. She randomly reached over and selected a 45 RPM record. There was an oval at the top of the label with the word 'Mercury' inside of it in fancy writing. She looked at the title. It was 'The Stroll', by The Diamonds. She flipped it over and looked at the other side. It was the 'Land Of Beauty'. It was marked as High Fidelity which would normally be referred to as 'Hi-Fi'.
She slowly slid it out of the paper sleeve it was in. She was careful to only touch the edges. There was an insert next to the phonograph. She placed it on the center spindle and set the record on top of it. She turned on the record player and it started to spin. There was some clicking noise and the record dropped down onto the turntable. The arm with the needle swung over and touched it. 'The Stroll' started to play. It was a song she'd heard before. She never knew who the group was who performed it. Now she did.
The phonograph was very much like the Jukebox she'd used at the Fifties and Sixties Diner. She figured 'The Stroll' was a 'slow dance' song. It made her think about the nature of dancing. What was dancing all about? It was for two individuals to be able to be in close proximity to each other, often touching each other and even holding each other in their arms. It was clearly a prelude to sexual activity. She understood standards were a little higher in the past than they were in her time period. She'd also encountered plenty of references to females delivering their baby 'early' once they were married, usually after eloping. It indicated they were actually pregnant before they did get married.
When the song finished, the little arm lifted it up and moved back over and sat down on the support. The turntable stopped spinning. She carefully lifted the record off and put it back in its sleeve. She didn't want to start listening to music right now. She was glad she hadn't put on 'The Twist', by Chubby Checker or 'At the Hop', by Danny And The Juniors. Both of those songs really moved.
She lay back down in bed and closed her eyes again. Her hand slid under the pillow and touched the reassuring metal of the Hi-Power.
Young Allison wondered exactly what Cameron was up to. She would need to worry about it later. She had enough to think about as it was. Her eyes slowly drifted closed.
Take Me Again
How much ever really changes
Isn't it all a repeat
If things were ever different
It would be a big feat
When things are different
For the past most will yearn
Don't wish too hard
Because they may actually return
Maybe what is really needed
Is a new and better venue
Soon the change is acceptable
It's fine if it will continue
Things may start to soar
As one likes them more
When they've run their course
Everyone wants an encore
The things which are enjoyed
Should be multiplied by ten
When one hears the other say
Take me again
Nobody
